Abstract
231,005. Frith, W. J. April 10, 1024. Submarine vessels.-An under-water life-saving device comprises a cylinder A fixed to a port A<1> and carrying a piston B connected by a rod C with a piston D in another cylinder E, an extension A<3> and sliding door A<4> being also provided. A life-buoy F fits in the cylinder A in a watertight manner by means of rings F<1> and carries air-chambers. F<2>, a face mask G, shoulder-pieces F<3>, and arm-straps H. A second buoy F is spaced apart from the first by struts J, the first being held in place by spring catches I. Pipes K are provided for equalizing the pressure and a compressed-air pipe is connected by valves L<1>, L<2> to the cylinders E, A respectively. In operation, the man M gets into position through the door A<5> which is closed and locked. and air is admitted behind the piston D and, if desired, behind piston B to eject him and move the back buoy F into position for the next man. The last man can open the valve L<1> or L<2> by means of a rod N. The buoys may contain flares, matches, stimulants, and the like for use at the sea-surface. Instead of compressed air, other power means may operate the pistons by rack and pinion means, and instead of the sliding door A<4> a cover plate T may be bolted to the vessel by screws U, V so constructed that they can be undone from inside and at the same time the holes are filled up to prevent ingress of water. Each compartment in the vessel is arranged to communicate with the ejection compartment, and more than one port is provided in case one gets obstructed from outside. The cylinder may communicate with the sea by means of a pipe and valve to admit water therein and the door A has a valve for the escape of air from the cylinder. According to the Provisional Specification, the rings F<1> may be of aluminium, rubber, anti-friction rope, or packing, and the buoy F is of cork. The struts J are fitted into holes in the buoys and may be carried to the surface with the buoy.
